The following story from St Louis:-
" MARK MCCLOSKEY: I see all these people outside the gate. Then the gate bursts open. People start coming in, and then a flood of people started coming in. They're angry, they're screaming. They've got spittle coming out of their mouths. They're coming towards our house. Out there with my wife, and I said, oh my God, we're absolutely alone. There's nobody here to protect us but us. That was the same night retired police captain David Dorn was murdered. I was literally afraid that within seconds they would surmount the wall, come into the house, kill us, burn the house down and everything that I'd worked for and struggled for the last 32 years.
But the story didn't end there, unfortunately, we're here to tell you tonight. After appearing on this show, Mark McCloskey and his wife were bombarded with death threats. Many of them credible.
Thursday, they learned of another coordinated attack on them that is planned for this weekend. They immediately called police. The dispatcher put them on hold and then finally transfer them to an officer. The officer didn't seem to be listening to anything the McCloskey's said. "We'll call you back," police said, and they never did.
Desperate, the McCloskey's then called a number of different private security firms, but not one of them would take the job of protecting them. The owner of the last company McClosky spoke to advised them to flee immediately.
Quote, "The only advice I can give you is abandon the house. Run. Let the mob have its way, let it burn."
But the McCloskey's are not running. They have spent 32 years rebuilding their home, and they plan to defend themselves. They have no choice. They are completely alone. No one will come to their aid.
Their governor, Mike Parson, is a Republican. He's also a former sheriff. Parson could fix their problem immediately. Parson could send state troopers to St. Louis tonight to protect the McCloskey's. But he hasn't done that.
Parson hasn't even picked up the phone to speak to them. He doesn't care, obviously. Nobody cares.
About an hour ago, Mark McCloskey called us to tell us all of this. He was panicked, understandably. His wife sobbed in the background as we spoke.
American citizens trapped in their home by a violent mob, knowing that something awful could happen to them very soon. Totally undefended. This is your country."
